Military.com

The salary website Payscale.com has announced their top-20 list for top employers of former servicemembers, and as you would expect, companies that have contracts with the DoD and federal govenment rank high on the list. Al Lee, PayScale's director of quantitative analysis, notes: "A key skill that military people have going for them is that they understand how to work with the government and the military."

Lee says that the top 20 employers fall under three industry categories: aerospace, weapons and defense contracting, and working for the government directly.
